The Symbolism of Water Many works of literature use symbols to represent abstract ideas. One symbol that is commonly used is water. Water is a viable symbol because it is versatile. It can be used to represent many different ideals because water in itself is ever changing.
any milk or milk by-products, such as cheeses, ice cream, butter, etc is considered dairy. Soy milk is okay, as is rice milk. Eggs are considered dairy, but as they don't come from a cow, I am not sure that would be included in your excluding dairy--same goes for goat's milk and it's by-products.
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Dairy is cow's milk or anything made from cow's milk. This includes: ice cream, cheese, milk, cottage cheese, and some other things. Soy milk or rice milk are not dairy products. One is made from soybeans and the other (I believe) is made from rice. Neither contains lactose.
